Google pulls plug on Fast Flip

Internet giant Google said Friday that it is pulling the plug on its online news reader Fast Flip and closing Aardvark, a “social search” service it bought last year.

Google is, IMHO, the devil incarnate.

You don't use google - Google uses you.

Google might be closing places down, but they take those people and putting them on other products... so I'm happy, at least people are NOT losing their jobs.

Well it goes to my age old saying, If you get something for free you are no longer the customer, you are the product.

Same goes with all the other free services out there, from Facebook to Hotmail and all, if its free you are the being sold.
